The Bridge (German title: Die Brücke) is a 2008 German war movie. In the closing days of World War Two, seven idealistic teenagers are drafted into the Hitler Youth and sent to defend a bridge against the allied advance. Abandoned by the retreating, demoralized Wehrmacht, they slowly lose their idealism as they are left in a life or death battle to survive.
The following weapons appear in the film The Bridge:
Sidearms
Colt M1911A1
An American Sergeant carries what appears to be a Colt M1911A1 in a holster.
Luger P08
Walter Forst (Lars Steinhöfel) and other German soldiers use the Luger P08.
Submachine Guns
MP40
Military Policemen carry the MP38.
M1928A1 Thompson
The main weapon of the US soldiers in the film is the M1928A1 Thompson. This is inaccurate; the main service weapon of the US Army in World War Two was the M1 Garand; the Thompson was used less frequently.
Rifles
Mauser Gewehr 1898
The Hitler Youth and Wehrmacht soldiers use the Mauser Gewehr 1898. Juergen Neuhaus (Daniel Axt) uses a Gewehr 1898 with a telescopic sight.
M1 Garand
American soldiers use the M1 Garand. Walter Forst (Lars Steinhöfel) can be briefly seen using a captured M1 with bayonet fixed.
Sturmgewehr 44
Several Wehrmacht soldiers use the Sturmgewehr 44. Albert Mutz (François Goeske) uses an Stg 44 at the end of the movie.
